Hmm. I heard about this too, but not one of the five I've had (in two
orders) suffered from this. Is this a stateside problem? Has anyone in
Europe had this problem? Is it to do with the manufacturing, or is it down
to areas with a warmer climate where they spend longer sat around in the
packaging? Maybe those who haven't had any problems simply haven't posted.
I know it was reported that ones with a twist along the length tend to jump
the rails. One of mine has a very slight bow; it's just detectable if you
look along the length, but this hasn't been a problem. It flattens out once
you build anything on it.
Maybe the answer is not to buy too many at a time. Because they're bagged,
not boxed, I can see there may be a deforming pressure if a large number
were stuffed into a small box.
